Why it is worth your time
This small fortress clings to the rock face high above Kotišina, looking down over Makarska and the sea from the slopes below Biokovo. Reaching it means a short uphill walk away from the beaches, rewarded with wide views back over the coast. A good stop for anyone who wants to add some history and elevation to a day otherwise spent along the Riviera.
Croatia Atlas tip
Go in the cooler part of the day, the uphill walk is far more pleasant without the midday sun.
